If I use aufs it won't cache the memory ram even when using hundreds of GB
for cache_dir.
My config:
/memory_pools off
# Set highwateer in memory cache limit
cache_mem 2 GB
# Maximum size of cached objects in memory
maximum_object_size_in_memory 500 KB
# Set the Cache Replacement Policy. Either retain popular small files (GDSF)
or just popular files regardless of size (LFUDA)
# Default is LRU wich is recently referenced objects.
memory_replacement_policy heap GDSF
# Enable pre-allocated memory
memory_pools_limit 1 GB
